Broken Ankles

Defensively responsible like son of Lars, but superior on offense in every way. His one-timer on the PP in Anaheim. 😮 Tage has definitely raised eyebrows this season. His play against a good Caps team was encouraging. Fun fact - Because of their unusual shape, giraffes have a highly-specialized cardiovascular system that starts with an enormous heart. It's two feet long and weighs up to 25 pounds. Let’s hope Tage’s proverbial heart is as big.

***** Jack ***** Lehner and now ***** Stone. Even though heretofore I had nothing against him and appreciated his game. They deserve nothing more than our ambivalence. But I’m not quite there yet, so I’ll choose to have a bit of Schadenfreude towards them. And hoping they win the cup is such a bad take.

Milquetoast Wings. from wiki - In 1983, while playing in the American Hockey League (AHL), under the direction of rookie coach Mike Keenan, James scored the winning goal for the Rochester Americans in the Calder Cup. https://www.hockeyfights.com/fights/67347

Toker is by far the only one earning his check tonight. Donny’s game plan - ‘Dump and disgrace’. I thought we were a fast team. Didn’t see that speed much tonight.

You have dismissed Pi’s source on multiple occasions as well as alluded to Vegas not being the leader in trade talks. Tell us more.

You said it. Hot knife/butter

Millennial Welfare. Looking forward to watching Eklund this evening. Read so much about him here prior to the draft. Playing on the second line.

I asked the same question against Anaheim, where they were more rested. The Kings we’re coming off a Saturday game, and the Sabres with Friday and Saturday off. Unacceptable result.

For the double header today Mafia Ways.

I always viewed Triumph as a poor mans Rush. Perhaps unfairly. But doesn’t Lay it on the Line qualify as their best?

We have lowered expectations, so all good. Observations Disappointed in the third getting dominated. I expected the Zegras/Henrique/Rakell line to have some success and they did in the first, especially. Zegras is going to be a good player. Ducks played Tuesday and the Sabres Monday. Yes, cross country travel and different time zone, but they shouldn’t have run out of gas. Good passing and rushes in the first. Skinner had his legs moving. More SOG in first half of the second, and controlled play. Butcher/Dahlin - not a great night. I want/ we deserve a shut down D in the Eichel trade. Didn’t think I would say this in August, but Eakin needs to get back soon. Hayden is not good. Asplund continues to score and shows some skill on the one timer. Enjoying watching him improve. KO continues to lead and play hard. Tage losing Faceoffs left and right. Strange bc he was exceeding expectations after the first three games on the dot. Covid protocols coupled with two below average teams definitely affected attendance. We sat in 225 row P. Single game tickets sell for $75 with fees. I bought our tickets at 4pm for $46 - fees included. Kid got a puck. Winning night right there.

The East cost contingency rewarded with a W for staying up late and suffering through a horrible third period. Learning to win.

LOL - we thought it was Victor bc of the one timer. Skills.

Hinostroza flipped my son a puck during warmup. A good day regardless of the outcome. #memories.

Malevolent Weapons I’ll be there.

Sergei Bobrovsky was quoted in the postgame, “The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated”.

In your scenario does Jason Botterill come back as the Sabres GM to pull the trigger on this trade?

I would be interested if the new analytics guys have data or suggested this as an option. Maybe the media who rummage the site for ideas can ask Donny at his next presser.

Love their philosophy of shooting at the empty net from their D zone

South Orange County CA. Originally from North Buffalo. Left in the mid 90s and like Swamp, coming up on exceeding my time in the 716. My wife has 7 more years until a full pension. So stuck in the 949 for a few more. Successfully raising one of my sons as a Sabres fan. Thank God Anaheim and LA are struggling too, otherwise he would be taking so much more shite than he already does. We are going together with my father (visiting) to the game against the Ducks this Thursday. The Centre Ice package brought me back about 10 years ago, after watching casually from 96-11.

Shoot more? He needs to be able to get pucks through before he increases his attempts. Too often blocked.

Our PK is good, their PK (Subban) suuuuucks.
